This is the problem when Market Analysts and Participants give quacks from seat in Financial Statement Analysis. Energy sector , like any other specialist sector requires deep understanding of the cost build up and what they actually mean. FIRST FIXED CHARGES is not the same as CAPACITY CHARGES. FIXED CHARGES, say of 150 shillings payable by each customer (SAY 4.1 MILLION CUSTOMERS as the writer says) per month represents the meter rent for the METER supplied to the customer, meaning even if the customer doesnt consume a single unit, he will pay a fixed charge of Ksh 150, that represents fixed operating cost for the customers. this fixed charges( 150 time number of customers is reported by KPLC as revenue.
CAPACITY CHARGES represents the cost of power purchase that KPLC pays to KENGEN and other IPP per month/year even when it doesnt buy energy from them. in the energy Sector, You have a Power Purchase Agreement(PPA) which stipulates the bulk Power Purchase tariff. a PPA will have FCCR(Fixed capacity charge rate) and (VOMCR-Variable operating and maintenance charge rate)...The VOMCR which is also called energy rate, is payable depending on how much actual energy is being supplied to KPLC. Like all KenGEN Hydro plants have capacity charge rates...Capacity charges recovers the Capital costs of a Generation Plant...the Energy costs recovers the Operating costs of the plant

Boss, i told you to discuss matters you fully understand...The fixed charges were converted to Energy Charges...But since you hardly understands, and you derive pleasure in misleading people, stick to your slow lane...Anyway, The fixed charges were loaded to energy rate(kWh charge) and spread across the different tariff segments...
